Autonomous Tracking and Landing (ATL) for multi-rotors.
cd <your catkin workspace>/src
git clone https://github.com/wavelab/atl
cd atl/scripts/install
sudo bash install_deps.bash
This will install all depencies required by ATL.
The following instructions assumes you have installed ROS.
cd <your catkin workspace>/src
git clone https://github.com/wavelab/atl
cd ..
catkin build
In short the above navigates to your catkin workspace's src, clones atl
and finally runs catkin_make to build the project, tests and installs configs
and launch files.
ATL uses Gazebo simulation to test the control and perception, to launch an instance of a Gazebo simulation along with ATL enter the following commands:
# Environment variables to tell Gazebo where to look for 3D models and plugins
# The following assumes you're using `catkin build` instead of `catkin make`
export GAZEBO_RESOURCE_PATH=${GAZEBO_RESOURCE_PATH}:$HOME/.gazebo
export GAZEBO_MODEL_PATH=${GAZEBO_MODEL_PATH}:$HOME/.gazebo/models
export GAZEBO_PLUGIN_PATH=${GAZEBO_PLUGIN_PATH}:$HOME/.gazebo/plugins
# Launch Gazebo simulation
roslaunch atl_ros atl_sim.launch
